Margaret: You know I’d die for you, only sometimes it’s so hard living with you.

Susan: You’re going to make me an old maid.
Margaret: Only until you’re 18.

Richard Nugent: Hey, you remind me of a man.
Susan Turner: What man?
Richard Nugent: Man with the power.
Susan Turner: What power?
Richard Nugent: Power of hoodoo.
Susan Turner: Hoodoo?
Richard Nugent: You do.
Susan Turner: Do what?
Richard Nugent: Remind me of a man…

Richard Nugent: Ready boot, let’s scoot!

Matt Beemish: As Menninger clearly points out, traumatic events…
Richard Nugent: [interrupting] The only traumatic event she needs is a good smack in the jaw!
Matt Beemish: She’s my niece… but you’re absolutely right.

Richard Nugent: Thank you, Your Honor, may I go?
Judge Margaret Turner: You’ve just got here, don’t you like our court?

Richard Nugent: [Jerry is sitting in his car in front of the Turner house] Jerry, what are you doing out here? Why don’t you go inside?
Jerry White: I’m not welcome. I’m a square in Susan’s social circle.
Richard Nugent: Nonsense, I’m sure Susan doesn’t know you’re out here.
Jerry White: She put me here.
Richard Nugent: Oh.

Agnes Prescott: Now there’s a guy who never goes out of a girl’s mind. He just stays there… like a heavy meal.

Waiter at Tick Tock Club: [to Nugent after he has been yelled at, insulted, slapped, had champagne tossed in his face and been stuck with the check] Can I get you anything else, sir?
Richard Nugent: For instance?

Richard (Dick) Nugent: How’d you get in here?
Matt Beemish: Well, the door was closed, so I opened it and came right in.

Susan: Well, my attitude is that one female judge in the family is enough.
Richard Nugent: Did you say that your name was Turner?
Susan: That’s right! My sister is Judge Margaret Turner.
Richard Nugent: Nice to have met the family, bye.
